About the Collection
The SVA Archives initiated the SVA COVID Collection in April 2020 to document the SVA community's response to the unprecendented circumstances of the COVID-19 pandemic. We solicited art from SVA students, faculty, staff, and alumni that filtered this experience (including current living situation, working from home, the shift to online learning, social distancing, and self-quarantine) through their creative output. The collection of more than 300 works includes paintings, drawings, photographs, posters, animation, and film.
The SVA COVID Collection is available publicly through Artstor and JSTOR. Click here to see the entire Collection.
This project is ongoing and members of the the SVA community may continue to submit work. You must be logged into your SVA account to access the form.
If you have any questions, please email the SVA Archives at archives@visualartsfoundation.
